Sydney, Australia \u2014 6th February, 2013 \u2014<\/b> AMD<\/a> today announced the arrival of its \u201cNever Settle: Reloaded\u201d<\/a> game bundle, the sequel to last year\u2019s monumental \u201cNever Settle\u201d bundle. Available now for Australia and New Zealand, \u201cNever Settle: Reloaded\u201d delivers by bundling up to four of this year\u2019s most anticipated PC games ? \u201cBioShock\u00ae Infinite\u201d by 2K Games and Irrational Games, \u201cCrysis\u00ae 3\u201d by Electronic Arts, \u201cDmC Devil May Cry\u2122\u201d by Capcom\u00ae and \u201cTomb Raider\u00ae\u201d by Square Enix ? with select AMD Radeon\u2122 HD 7900 and HD 7800 Series graphics cards. Participating Australian and New Zealand partners include ASUS, Gigabyte, MSI, Powercolor, HIS, XFX, Sapphire, Vertex3D.<\/p>\n

The bundle highlights the continued commitment by AMD to ensure an incredible gaming experience on the world\u2019s top PC titles optimised for AMD Radeon\u2122 graphics cards.<\/p>\n

\u201cAMD knows gaming and in 2013 we plan to make a huge mark on the industry. Today we begin that journey by showing the world that the best PC game developers are AMD Gaming Evolved<\/a> partners,\u201d said Matt Skynner, corporate vice president and general manager of AMD Graphics. \u201cThe \u2018Never Settle: Reloaded\u2019 bundle clearly stands apart from anything else in the market. Gaming has always been, and will remain, the core of the AMD Graphics strategy and success. In 2013, we plan to forge greater inroads into the gaming industry and it begins with packaging this year\u2019s biggest games with the best graphics hardware from AMD.\u201d<\/p>\n

The introduction of this gaming bundle further demonstrates AMD leadership in and commitment to gaming as the centerpiece of its long-term graphics strategy. In 2013, AMD plans to further reinforce its position as an industry-leading graphics provider by focusing on four critical pillars. The first pillar is content, where AMD will continue its ground-breaking work with game developers to ensure the greatest games are optimised to play on the greatest hardware, AMD Radeon graphics. Second, AMD will work with console developers to evolve and improve the console experience for both gamers and game developers. Third is the cloud, where AMD will expand the limits of online gaming through technology partnerships with companies like CiiNow<\/a>, enabling game publishers, retailers and carriers to tap into the growing online video game market, ultimately providing greater choice for PC gamers. And finally, AMD will continue to deliver cutting-edge graphics technology which ultimately sets the foundation for driving the best gaming experiences regardless of the platform.<\/p>\n

“The \u2018Crysis\u2019 franchise has a reputation for demanding the world’s most powerful graphics cards,” said Cevat Yerli, CEO and president of Crytek. “\u2019Crysis 3\u2019 pushes GPU technology even further and is the best looking game we have ever worked on, so we needed a hardware partner that could keep up with us. The AMD Gaming Evolved program clearly demonstrated that AMD Radeon and the Graphics Core Next architecture is what we needed.”<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of our goals with \u2018Tomb Raider\u2019 is to make the game experience feel believable and the graphics become one of the key components to help deliver that,\u201d said Karl Stewart, global brand director, Crystal Dynamics. \u201cUsing AMD Radeon with the compute-driven graphics features in \u2018Tomb Raider\u201d helped us create an island which can be visually stunning or inhospitably hostile, introduce a cast of characters and tell this origins story to the best effect.\u201d<\/p>\n

AMD Radeon Technology<\/b>
\nThe award-winning AMD Radeon HD 7900 and HD 7800 Series graphics cards feature AMD CrossFire\u2122 technology, immersive AMD Eyefinity multi-display technology and AMD HD3D stereo 3D, which when combined with the latest DirectX\u00ae 11.1 capable games, deliver exceptional experiences and cutting-edge visuals for gamers. For gamers looking for the ultimate gaming card to take full advantage of the \u201cNever Settle: Reloaded\u201d bundle, the limited-edition ASUS ROG ARES II<\/a> graphics card is currently available. Equipped with two overclocked AMD Radeon\u2122 HD 7970 GHz Edition GPUs in a slender two-slot design, the ROG ARES II suits a variety of PC cases, and has a new hybrid thermal design that combines liquid and air cooling.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are pleased that the AMD \u2018Never Settle\u2019 promotion of 2012 returns in 2013. This free game promotion for AMD Radeon graphics was a huge success and was very well received by our gaming enthusiasts,\u201d said Rob Verheij, marketing coordinator, Alternate Netherlands. \u201cI am convinced that this new bundle promotion<\/a>, which contains top games like \u2018BioShock\u00ae Infinite,\u2019 \u2018Crysis\u00ae 3\u2019 and \u2018Tomb Raider\u00ae\u2019 will be a big success.\u201d<\/p>\n
